A place to discuss all things ADM

For sure a partial change of heart. My Max adm was 15 and I had to go with 20 to get the car. Was hesitant to do so since more money I’d always worse than less money. But i bit the bullet and did it anyways. Maybe I’m a good example. After wringing my hands on an adm and then ultimately paying for it, I no longer care.

Why doesn’t Porsche just raise the MSRP for GT3 to $195K. Clearly there is a market for these cars around that price point, given my hunch is most people are paying $25-35K ADMs. There might be some buyers who are building to a budget that order fewer options, but Porsche margins would still be better on average. Seems like it would end most of the ADM shenanigans since beyond a certain point (call it $250K or so) a lot of other more exotic options become available. I don’t really get it.

Truth is we don't know.. but it's reasonable to think that Porsche will build to demand as they always have. They adjust the 911 production line according to what the market wants... Remember, this is nothing more than a regular 911 with an engine and some off-the-shelf parts that they combine into a car they call a "Gt3" to send us addicted fools all into titillations. Profit margin's are probably a little bit higher on this due to the price, costs are just the same to build it as anything else, the more options we order the more money they make. It's all the same **** in a different marketing package. Look at how they increase production for the 991 GT3... It's likely and reasonable to think it will increase it even more this go round.

It’s called inflation…
Maybe a few will get burned, but to quite a few others, it appears they are willing to pay the ADM (because they can) for the car they want now and aren’t too worried about it.
Sounds like you aren’t in that boat and are a little butthurt about it. Not saying you are, but it sounds that way…

I don't understand this statement at all. Why would anyone who gets to order one of the first 992 GT3s exactly the way they want be shedding tears if they POTENTIALLY lose a bit of value on their car in the future? That implies that anyone who pays an ADM only cares about value retention. Absurd comment when it's likely the opposite..people paying over sticker on a car likely care less than the ones who won't

Doesn't seem so, he said he paid ADM for his 991.1 3RS and hasn't received an MSRP allocation for the 992. I'm sure he's been around the block with GT cars I just don't understand the sentiment towards those that are willing to pay a ~10% ADM to get the car they want. This topic sucks anyway.

I got a 991.2 GT3 and 991.2 GT3RS and 718 GT4 at MSRP but I haven't pushed hard to get a 992.1 GT3 at MSRP because the want factor isn't high. I just know how this will play out in 1-2 years. I track all of my GT cars so I could care less how much I sell them for when it's time to move on.

dont feel bad. I just got my budget for the house we are building. It came in 2 million over what we had told our builder what we were expecting to spend. 30k adm doesn’t seem so bad anymore.

The GT3 shared very little with the standard Carreras, door panels and roof IIRC. If you've ever tried to retrofit a Carrera into an RS or GT car, you'd find there are hundreds of parts changes to make the car motorsport ready. It's not a marketing exercise, although they do market it well ![burnout](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/burnout.gif)

This thread is even worse than the Tesla thread. A serious and effort full accomplishment

I won't pay an ADM on a car that I don't have a big want for because I work way too hard for my money but being able to track the cars and do canyon runs is well paid depreciation in my mind. I paid over for a 991.1RS, it bothered me and I told myself I'd never do it again (I also learned to be more patient). I know the cars that I buy will depreciate because I drive them but I'm not willing to add an ADM to that depreciation when I know it's a horrible time to buy a car today.
